Hood Girl Finance Basics

After 19 years of working in the field of Accounting and Finance, being a single mother who had to learn to make a steak out of a potato, and raising a financially knowledgeable & savvy young adult, our conversations alerted me to the sad truth that young people are not being taught about basic money and financial skills.
Most people who talk about money and finances start at a level that is above where a lot of our youth are. I wanted to start where many youth live, but they rarely have their questions addressed from the ground up.
Disclaimer- I do not claim to be an expert in the field of finance, I have however acquired a vast knowledge base that starts with the simple basics of money.
I want to share that with all who are interested.
